Only Because Of You Poem by Randy McClave

Because of you
I took another virus shot,
That statement is factual and true
From me that virus you never caught.
For the exact same reason this I will tell,
I also took the flu shot so from me you never got the flu as well.

Because of you
I obey all the laws when I am driving,
To those laws I am always true
Because of me on the road you are surviving.
Speeding or drinking while I'm driving I never engage,
And because for you I never have any type of road rage.

Because of you
I don't ever litter or smoke,
That statement is again true
Because, in my house you won't get cancer or choke.
As I respected and helped my mother since birth,
For you, I also respect and help our Mother Earth.

Because of you
I always help the needy and the poor,
Which is again actual and true
I even donate to those standing/ sitting outside a store.
If I have helped you from starving or pain or from the slum,
You are sincerely welcome.

Because of you
I frequently donate my blood,
It is something I do which is true
Incase or because of tornado, hurricane or flood.
I give it because of pain, sorry, need, worries or strife
I might save you, or another person's life.

Because of you
I never ever hated or yelled or cursed or did swear,
Everyone knows that is true
For you I always instead say a prayer.
I always help and support and give,
As I want you to be happy, and to joyfully live.
